You can enjoy high-quality audio by connecting the unit's audio output to your amplifier or receiver.
• Connect the unit's AUDIO OUT to any line-level inputs (such as AUX, DVD, CD, etc.) of an audio amplifier or receiver.
You can enhance the sound quality by connecting either of the unit's DIGITAL OUT jacks (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) to the
digital input of an amplifier, MD, etc. by using an optional digital cable. The digital audio signal from a disc is directly
transferred. If you connect the unit to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an amplifier with a built-in decoder by using an
optional digital cable, you can enjoy high-quality surround sound.
When you make the digital connection, we recommend also to make the analog connection, because, depending on
discs, no signal may be output from the DIGITAL OUT.

NOTES
• When you connect the unit's DIGITAL OUT to digital audio equipment, before using, make the “DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT”
setting in the “AUDIO” page of the preference display correctly according to the connected audio equipment. If the “DIGITAL
AUDIO OUTPUT” is not set correctly, loud noise may be generated from speakers, causing damage to your speakers. See
“DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT” on page 54.
• With the digital connection, the COMPRESSION setting in the AUDIO page of the preference display are invalid. Settings for
these items must be made from the decoder.
